Damn, that sucks! I once ran over a ladder when driving 80 mph on I-95. It penetrated my bumper and hit my suspension. Near-death experience.
O my god I had the same experience I had to brake to let one car go by but was able to speed up and change lanes.l(it was a metal ladder).

Small add-on but I like the pop of color the M art license plate adds.

Sometime I wonder how they are not able to secure a ladder properly.
They need to tie it to their neck, so they know when it fly away. Or not.

Similar story, but something arrived today. Take that AlexFL 😂
Seems like trunk spoiler.

Setup a canopy so that she can have some shade and protect the paint from elements. Also helps with washing while the sun is out.

One of the BMW NA customer service reps mailed me one as a courtesy for talking to him about my M8 purchase and experience. It is a different pattern and says FAST on the bottom middle. Still sitting on my desk.
